Orange Calcite is both highly energizing and cleansing by nature. It helps with balancing emotions by soothing fear and symptoms of depression. Because it is often close in color to Yellow Calcite, we have used the two titles interchangeably here at Crystal Life.
Historical Folklore
The name Calcite is derived from the Latin word calcit, meaning “lime.” It is notably present in marble and limestone formations.
Given that calcite is so often present in marble and limestone, it has been used as a base for architecture and construction throughout history.
Some believe that orange calcite carries the properties of fire within it.
Geology

Health Folklore
Orange Calcite is thought to strengthen the blood and bones, as well as help with abdominal issues. It is considered excellent for soothing a variety of mental health issues.
